Indeed. Myself, it took me too long to pair down my site.

First I went from Wordpress+MySQL down to a Bottle+Redis (https://github.com/sc68cal/homepage/tree/bottle+redis) based site.

This article then inspired me to go a step further and use Jekyll (https://github.com/sc68cal/homepage/commit/c422edc3a298674e1...). My Jinja2 templates translated to Liquid with minimal effort.

I'm much happier with it, and plan to get back into writing.
